Beginning of the 2011 season


On Saturday afternoon, April 2nd, the Grinnell Community Garden season started with the help of Ann Brau from Compass Plant CSA. She took a break from working on her farm to drive over on her tractor and till the garden space. On Thursday I had cut down last year's plants and raked out most of the leaves and straws, which we piled in one corner of the garden. The soil was dry and loose enough that Ann only needed to make one pass over each section of the garden.
